Dear Roomies,
Remember that first night? The first night of us all being on our own for the first time. It was exciting and a little scary. I remember being nervous, but we all unpacked and laughed, and I ended up feeling a little better. Remember talking about all the house parties we’d attend together? The people we’d meet and the adventures we’d all encounter? I can’t believe those years have already flown by; I can’t believe we’ve already accomplished all those things; I can’t believe it’s almost over.
As time has gone by, we’ve become a little family; we bicker about dishes and have TV dinners. We’ve been through the thick and the thin together, and it’s been a crazy ride. I have so many things to thank you guys for, and so many memories I will cherish forever, but as the end approaches, that’s not what I need you guys to know. I need you guys to know how proud I am to have been your roommate.
As your roommate, I have had the opportunity to watch you guys go through some difficult times; I’ve watched you guys achieve your goals, push your limits, grow into strong individuals and now I get to see you guys finish college. As your roommate I know you guys can conquer anything you put your mind to. I know you guys will never settle for less than you deserve, and I know you guys will always be just a phone call away when I need you. As your roommate, I know we have different dreams to go after. I know we will have to take some time apart now that college is coming to a close, but I know we’ll always stay close. As your roommate, I want you guys to know that I learned a lot from you, I’ve grown into a new person whom I really enjoy because of you, and I will always be your roommate no matter how much time passes by. As your roommate, I want to tell you guys that you are important people in my life, that I believe in you guys, that I am proud to have been your roommate.
Although I am sad it is all coming to an end, I know how lucky I am to have had such a crazy adventure with some amazing roommates. I will forever value the moments we’ve created together, and appreciate the last few we still have left. If I could do it all again, I’d still do it with you guys by my side, so here’s to us and the incredible friendship that has formed from living with some pretty remarkable people — my roommates.
Love,
Your Roomie
